Anyone ever had one? Any good? Didn’t know the made bows. Picked one up for $50 today
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Somewhere around this joint I have an older Archers bible, revised edition written by Fred Bear. This one was probably printed in the late '70s early '80s but a lot of the content was older even then.
Something tells me there may have been some Colt recurves in there. I will keep looking for the book and see if I find anything on Colt recurves in it.

Have one back at the cabin will try to grab a pic next time I'm there. My uncle hunted it back in the late 70's early 80's. $50 I'd have grabbed it quick.

Actually have seen a couple of the short hunter Colt recurves pass through my local pro shop. Browings..............was one getting a new string last month.
Used to be several clubs and even leagues in the factories, way back. Pops shot a Herter's or Shakespear, mom shot a Bear Tamerlane.
